Sponge cake cupcakes with lemon icing

[purrbaby]

I'm not sure if I like these or not. The icing is very good but VERY sweet -- it basically tastes like non-cold lemon sorbet (I might have gone a little overboard with the lemon zest, hee). The cake itself is super-super light, like an angelfood cake. Well, duh Nina! It's sponge cake. I'm going to try a gold butter cake recipe tonight. But! Still.

I love the freshness of lemon zest in baking

Well done :)

And zesting is kinda addictive so i can totally understand lol.
